Chapter 24 Bai Jue is bewildered
"First of all, please keep quiet once you arrive!"
Uzumaki Reikawa: "..."
"Hmm~?"
"Mhm!" Reikawa Uzumaki quickly corrected his attitude.
Kakashi felt a bit tired, thinking that this kid was acting strangely. He had been quite polite before, but after meeting Naruto, he changed. Was it because birds of a feather flock together?
"Kakashi-sensei, over here, over here!" Naruto waved excitedly. Hehe, Kakashi-sensei is treating us to barbecue today, so we're going to eat as much as we want.
Sasuke remained calm, while Sakura stood up and greeted them, "Kakashi-sensei, Reikawa, your seats are here."
Kakashi narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Okay."
When Naruto saw Reikawa, he instinctively opened his mouth to ask about his parents, but then he suddenly remembered what Kakashi had said before: Reikawa's parents had also passed away, and he had only just managed to return to Konoha.
He only knows that one of his parents is from the Uzumaki clan, and he probably doesn't know anything else, so let's not talk about those unpleasant things.
Over here, Tsunade finally remembered where she had seen this face before. She called Jiraiya over, took out a photo, and showed it to him: "Isn't this kid one of the three you taught back then?"
"Three little devils?"
Jiraiya took the photo with a puzzled look. "This is… this red hair!" he exclaimed in shock. "Nagato?!"
Tsunade asked, "Is it him?"
If that's the case, then we need to consider why he changed his name and came to Konoha.
"No, it's not Nagato."
After his initial surprise, Jiraiya carefully observed them and said to Tsunade, "Although they look very similar, how should I put it? Nagato's personality is rather calm and aloof, and Reikawa's eyes are just ordinary eyes."
"Is that so? Could they be brothers or something?" Tsunade wondered.
Jiraiya didn't know if the three war orphans had any siblings. "I don't know either. I'll go ask them later."
Tsunade nodded: "If we can confirm that what Uzumaki Reikawa said is true, his joining will be a great help to Konoha."
"Oh?" Jiraiya was a little surprised; this was quite a high compliment.
Tsunade explained, "Uzumaki Reikawa is very likely from the main family line. He was able to learn the Vajra Sealing Technique and the Four Symbols Sealing Technique on his own with almost no guidance. Before learning these two ninjutsu, he didn't even seem to know the Three Body Technique."
Jiraiya nodded: "I understand."
"Also, keep an eye on Danzo's movements. He wanted me to hand over Uzumaki Reikawa to him, saying that Uzumaki Reikawa was still holding a grudge against Konoha and that he wanted to put a cursed seal on Uzumaki Reikawa and turn him into a puppet." Tsunade said this with some anger.
They were once the most loyal allies, and now they've fallen to this state, with perhaps only one or two people left in this group, yet Danzo still intends to do this. What does he value human life?!
What's even more frustrating is that she can't shake his position. Danzo is, after all, a veteran of Konoha, and the other two advisors won't let Tsunade do this...
Just as she was thinking this, an ANBU member suddenly burst in and said a few words to Tsunade. Tsunade's expression changed, and she immediately became serious: "Let's not go to Jiraiya's place in Uzumaki or Reikawa for now. We'll talk about it next time. Let's go to Root now."
Seeing Tsunade's expression, Jiraiya also became serious: "What happened?"
"Danzo is dead!"
"?!?!"
Tsunade was in a bad mood. Although she had indeed wanted Danzo to step down, and even felt that his death was just right.
But this doesn't mean she wanted Danzo to die like that. After all, Danzo was still a member of Konoha, and now he's died inexplicably in Konoha, which is a complete slap in the face to Konoha.
Furthermore, the person who killed Danzo was able to infiltrate Konoha and find Root without anyone noticing. Does that mean that person could also break into the Hokage Building in the same way?
What's even more ridiculous is that if Danzo hadn't died, Tsunade wouldn't even know the exact location of Root. Who exactly was this man? What were his motives? Did he pose a threat to Konoha? These were all questions Tsunade, as Hokage, needed to consider.
Upon arriving at the scene, Tsunade saw the towering tree that had inexplicably sprung up, and her anger continued to flare. This time, however, her anger was not directed at the person who killed Danzo.
So Danzo's research on the First Hokage's cells hasn't stopped after all? Damn it! Damn it!!
Seeing that Tsunade was emotionally unstable, Jiraiya gently placed his hand on her shoulder: "Tsunade, calm down. Let's look for clues around here first. We must find out what killed Danzo first."
Tsunade, barely suppressing her anger, slapped Jiraiya's hand away: "I know, I'm the Hokage, I know what's important!"
After taking a few steps forward, Tsunade squatted down, looking at the blood on the ground, feeling that she would discover many shocking secrets today.
Thinking of this, Tsunade suddenly frowned and said to Jiraiya, "Help me notify all departments to seal this place off. No one but you and me is allowed to enter!"
On the other side, upon hearing the news of Danzo's death, Aburame Torune and Yamanaka Fu, two staunch loyalists to Danzo, both looked incredulous.
In their shock and rage, they unleashed tremendous killing intent towards the Root ninja who had lost the seal of the tongue-severing Root and revealed Danzo's death. How could Lord Danzo be dead?!
You're the ones who leaked the information, aren't you? It's all fake!! Traitors, die!
Unseen by others, Aburame Torune and Yamanaka Fu carried out a massacre of the Root ninjas who were wavering between their allies, and after venting their anger, they planned to avenge Danzo...

During his routine patrol, White Zetsu suddenly noticed that the movements of the Konoha ninja seemed a bit off, especially in one particular area where the search was so thorough that even he dared not set foot there easily.
Is there infighting in Konoha? White Zetsu wondered. He used the Mayfly Technique to explore the area and see if he could gather any information. As he traveled, he suddenly saw a red-haired person talking to the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
There's no other reason than that the hair color is too eye-catching.
Upon seeing the figure clearly, White Zetsu was immediately shocked: That's—Nagato?! No, that's not right, Nagato's hair isn't that long, and he doesn't have the Rinnegan.
Thinking of this, Bai Jue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"You want to learn that ninjutsu?"
Naruto coughed a few times: "I'm going to charge tuition."
"10 bowls of Ichiraku Ramen!"
Upon hearing this, Naruto's eyes lit up.
"Deal! Let's go over there first." Naruto pointed to the training ground in the distance.
"Watch closely! It's a seduction technique!"
With a muffled "poof," a cloud of smoke billowed out. A stunningly beautiful girl with blonde twin tails appeared.
"Zero River, am I pretty~?" Naruto asked dramatically, holding Zero River's shoulder.
"..." Reikawa Uzumaki interlocked his middle finger and thumb and gave Naruto a flick on the forehead.
Suddenly, with a bang, Naruto transformed back to normal.
"Ouch~ It hurts so much, you know?" Naruto complained, clutching his head.
"I think I've learned it."
"Huh?" Naruto was taken aback.
Reikawa Uzumaki formed hand seals: "Seduction Technique!"
As the smoke cleared, Lingchuan truly transformed into a female version of Nagato, her excessively long red hair casually draped behind her, and she wore a luxurious black dress.
After transforming, Lingchuan thought for a moment and then applied the same principle to other characters, transforming himself into a short-haired handsome man or an adult uncle. However, all of these characters had one thing in common: red hair.
White Zetsu: "..."
It looks pretty good. By the way, what does Nagato look like again...?
